Foundations of Space-Time Theories
This book, explores the conceptual foundations of Einstein's theory of relativity: the fascinating, yet tangled, web of philosophical, mathematical, and physical ideas that is the …
Period Spaces for p-divisible Groups (AM-141), Volume 141
In this monograph p-adic period domains are associated to arbitrary reductive groups. Using the concept of rigid-analytic period maps the relation of p-adic period domains to …
Introduction to Ramsey Spaces (AM-174)
Ramsey theory is a fast-growing area of combinatorics with deep connections to other fields of mathematics such as topological dynamics, ergodic theory, mathematical logic, and …
Classifying Spaces for Surgery and Corbordism of Manifolds. (AM-92), Volume 92
Beginning with a general discussion of bordism, Professors Madsen and Milgram present the homotopy theory of the surgery classifying spaces and the classifying spaces for the …
A Theory of Cross-Spaces. (AM-26), Volume 26
The description for this book, A Theory of Cross-Spaces. (AM-26), will be forthcoming.
Harmonic Analysis in Phase Space. (AM-122), Volume 122
This book provides the first coherent account of the area of analysis that involves the Heisenberg group, quantization, the Weyl calculus, the metaplectic representation, wave …
Finite Dimensional Vector Spaces. (AM-7), Volume 7
As a newly minted Ph.D., Paul Halmos came to the Institute for Advanced Study in 1938--even though he did not have a fellowship--to study among the many giants of mathematics who …
Infinite Loop Spaces (AM-90), Volume 90
The theory of infinite loop spaces has been the center of much recent activity in algebraic topology. Frank Adams surveys this extensive work for researchers and students. Among …
Democracy and the Public Space in Latin America
This is a bold new study of the recent emergence of democracy in Latin America. Leonardo Avritzer shows that traditional theories of democratization fall short in explaining this …
Strong Rigidity of Locally Symmetric Spaces. (AM-78), Volume 78
Locally symmetric spaces are generalizations of spaces of constant curvature. In this book the author presents the proof of a remarkable phenomenon, which he calls "strong …
A Sacred Space Is Never Empty
When the Bolsheviks set out to build a new world in the wake of the Russian Revolution, they expected religion to die off. Soviet power used a variety of tools--from education to …
